By requiring general-coordinate and conformal invariance of the hydrodynamic equations, we show that the unitary Fermi gas has zero bulk viscosity, zeta=0, in the normal phase. In the superfluid phase, two of the bulks viscosities have to…

We are reporting a new non-Fermi liquid type normal phase that has a well defined Fermi energy, but without showing any non-regularity in the momentum distribution function in the whole momentum space, the sharp Fermi momentum concept being…
We investigate the two dimensional generalized attractive Hubbard model in a bipartite lattice, and and a "quantum phase liquid" phase, in which the fermions are paired but don't have phase coherence at zero temperature, in analogy to…
We present a composite fermion theory of tunneling into the edge of a compressible quantum Hall system. The tunneling conductance is non-ohmic, due to slow relaxation of electromagnetic and Chern-Simons field disturbances caused by the…
We study the relation between the dc conductance and the transmission through an interacting region based on the Kubo formalism using the perturbation analysis in the Coulomb interaction developed by Yamada-Yosida and Shiba. We find that…
Integrable models such as the spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain, the Lieb-Liniger or the one-dimensional Hubbard model are known to avoid thermalization, which was also demonstrated in several quantum-quench experiments. Another dramatic…
We study superconductivity in a two-dimensional, disordered marginal Fermi liquid. At the semiclassical level, the transition temperature $T_c$ is strongly suppressed because marginal Fermi liquid effects destroy well-defined…

The Luttinger Theorem, which relates the electron density to the volume of the Fermi surface in an itinerant electron system, is taken to be one of the essential features of a Fermi liquid. The microscopic derivation of this result depends…
